Great job at a fictional triller

Rating: 9/10 (26 July 2005)

I was quite impressed by this movie, I entered rather skeptical and expecting a "Survivor-esque" theme only to be thrilled to find out that it avoided this theme all together. Not only was the writing great, the acting was seemingly flawless and the editing was amazing.
Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johannson made some difficult lines believable that transcended the usual cheese factor that is inherent with 'people being introduced into an alien society' situations.
Being a huge movie critic by my own right, having been disappointed an infinite number of times in the recent 5 or so years with movies where there are special effects in lieu of a quality plot. I would recommend this to be seen immediately, if not sooner.
